On April 10th, a donation ceremony carrying a green mission kicked off at the Rural Revitalization Service Center of Baoqian Village, Tianya District, Sanya City, Hainan Province. The Beijing International Ecological Economy Association (IEEPA) hosted this event for the donation of verified greenhouse gas emission reductions. Leaders and experts from the national, provincial and municipal levels gathered here to jointly map out the blueprint for the development of zero-waste and zero-carbon ecological agriculture in Sanya, injecting rural green momentum into the construction of a Beautiful China.

This event has created multiple "firsts" and can be regarded as a groundbreaking initiative in the field of ecological agriculture. Burnin Energy (Shenzhen) Co., Ltd. took the lead in breaking conventions by donating 218 tons of verified emission reductions to the Beijing International Ecological Economy Association. This marks the first time that an enterprise has donated verified greenhouse gas emission reductions to a social organization, demonstrating its environmental responsibility through concrete actions. Subsequently, the association transferred these 218 tons of emission reductions to the Zero-Waste and Zero-Carbon Ecological Agricultural Park in Tianya District, Sanya City, ensuring that green efforts are precisely implemented in rural areas.
Professional certification provides strong support for this "green miracle". China Quality Certification Center (CQM) conducted a rigorous inspection and evaluation of the greenhouse gas emissions during the construction phase of the park. It was finally confirmed that the emissions had been fully offset, and a carbon neutrality evaluation certificate for the construction phase was issued. Academician Hao Jiming of the Chinese Academy of Engineering personally presented the donation certificate, carbon neutrality certificate and evaluation report to the Tianya District People's Government. This signifies the birth of China's first "ecological agricultural park achieving carbon neutrality during the construction phase" in Sanya, setting a green benchmark for the industry

"This is an important milestone in the development of the project!" said Hu Shouyao, Deputy District Mayor of Tianya District. His comment reflects the great significance of this achievement. During the event, representatives from various departments including the China Geological Survey Bureau's Center for Hydrogeology and Environmental Geology, the Hainan Provincial Department of Ecology and Environment, as well as local farmer representatives, visited the construction site of the park to witness this green achievement.
Looking back on the journey, since its launch in 2023, the project has been committed to three core goals: "ecological circulation, climate friendliness, and benefit-sharing for common prosperity". With a total investment exceeding 10 million yuan, and supported by departments such as the Ministry of Ecology and Environment and the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs, as well as promoted by governments at all levels in Sanya, the project has successfully completed its first-phase tasks. What is even more proud is that the achievements of the project attracted widespread attention from the international community when they were showcased at the COP29 United Nations Climate Change Conference. Academician Hao Jiming also highly praised the association for its down-to-earth spirit of tackling tough challenges in the field of agriculture, rural areas and farmers, and "writing research papers on the land". This has injected stronger confidence into Sanya's new journey towards zero-waste and zero-carbon ecological agriculture.
